MONTREAL--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PPLCONNECT today announced closing a seed round of funding with lead
investor Sherbrooke Street Capital (SSC) Inc. and the latest release of
its award winning mobile solution.

PPLCONNECT is an integrated communications solution for the multi-device
environment we live in today. The previous beta release of PPLCONNECT
integrated traditional SMS and calling with an OTT “over-the-top” free
messaging service, available simultaneously between PC and device.

With the latest release, available today on the Google
Play store, PPLCONNECT is the only mobile app which centralizes all
messaging app notifications. PPLCONNECT users are able to receive their
WhatsApp, Viber, Facebook Messenger, Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter, and
other communication app notifications live on their computer or tablet
when logged in to PPLCONNECT, without any software installation required
beyond the PPLCONNECT mobile app.

PPLCONNECT Co-Founder Jenviev Azzolin explains: “We know people
use multiple messaging apps to communicate with all their contacts. Our
goal is to make it easier for them to receive all their messages in 1
place cross-device. We believe PPLCONNECT is the desktop
dashboard for your phone.“

PPLCONNECT already lets users send and receive SMS and make calls with
their phone number from any device; now they can get notifications for
key social media and messaging apps too, including: Facebook, Facebook
Messenger, Twitter, Skype, Instagram, WhatsApp, Viber, Snapchat, Hike,
